When selecting a character to send out on a dispatch mission, watch the

tend not to be able to complete the missions.

7-9/10 ninja(use blade for double weapon equip-attack, move and agility)
10-15 archer(learn crippling, blinding, paralyzing moves)-agility
if you're a hunter, you can capture monsters for fights in later matches.

THen stay as a fighter.

Make your guy a hunter learn action abilities side winder and sonic boom. after you learn that, change job to a palidan and equipt excalibar 2 and nagorok. Now you have a long range sonic boom ability with power of excalibar 2 and a one panal range attack sidwinder which can do over 400 damage if you are good. but in early levels it works just as good.

Steps to capturing a monster:
1. kill all other monsters exept for the one that you wish to capture and one other enemy that does not pose a threat.
2. attack desired monster until hp is as low as possible.
3. use status effect on desired monster, such as, slow, stop, blackout, aim( legs, arms, ect. ) silence, sleep, and petrify.
4. do not use status alignments such as poison that damage foe, as this could cause the monster to die.
5. for list of monsters that can be captured check other websites.

During Mission One, send all of your party members except Marche to the right to defeat the short enemies. Send Marche forward so he is in front of the sprite (the fairy-like creature). The sprite will do about 5 damage to Marche every turn. Marche can heal himself 7 points each turn, and he gets 10 EXP each time he does it. Keep having Marche heal himself over and over, and this way you can get him to a high level very early in the game. You can also have your other characters attack Marche, and they will gain a lot of EXP because Marche is at a much higher level than they are

If you're interested in getting two high level Moogles early in the game (or any time), make two of them become Jugglers of equal levels. Also, make sure they both know the move "Smile" before going into battle with them. When it comes to their turns in battle, use Smile on the other Moogle Juggler, giving it the next turn. Then, go back and forth over and over again with this, as each turn it will net them 10 experience points. Enemies will never get a turn until you decide not to use Smile. This proves to be a great way to level up.

To make sure you don't lose any of your special characters, you must bring someone that can heal (i.e. Viera White mage). You must at least be able to revive your units. So when your special character dies they wont leave your clan.

Special characters can only be recruited once, and if you lose them they say good bye forever.

When you barely start and you get the frosty mage mission kill all the monsters and the mage.And then if your guy knows first aid keep on using it and you will get 10 exp. points evertime. that is why my guy is level 100 and my guys are level 10!

Buy 99 potions (which is not a high cost once you're farther into the game) and no matter what level you're at if you use a potion on a teammate you will gain 10 exp. It is a GREAT way to level up no matter what level you are.
